* USB: add Printer Gadget DriverCraig W. Nadler2008-02-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | G_PRINTER: Adds a USB printer gadget driver for use in printer firmware. This adds a USB printer gadget driver for use in printer firmware. The printer gadget channels data between the USB host and a userspace program driving the print engine. The user space program reads and writes the device file /dev/g_printer to receive or send printer data. It can use ioctl calls to the device file to get or set printer status. Signed-off-by: Craig W.

* USB: power-management documenation updateAlan Stern2007-11-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as1014) was partly written by Tilman Schmidt. It clarifies the USB power-management documentation by explaining that when a disconnect occurs, a suspend method call might not be followed by either a resume or a reset_resume call.

* USB: usb/dma doc updatesDavid Brownell2007-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch updates some of the documentation about DMA buffer management for USB, and ways to avoid extra copying. Our understanding of the issues has improved over time. - Most drivers should *avoid* the dma-coherent allocators. There are a few exceptions (like the HID driver). - Some methods are currently commented out; it seems folk writing USB drivers aren't doing performance tuning at that level yet. - Just avoid highmem; there's no good way to pass an "I can do highmem DMA" capability through a driver stack. This is easy, everything already avoids highmem. But it'd be nice if x86_32 systems with much physical memory could use it directly with network adapters and mass storage devices. (Patch, anyone?)

* USB: add power/persist device attributeAlan Stern2007-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as920) adds an extra level of protection to the USB-Persist facility. Now it will apply by default only to hubs; for all other devices the user must enable it explicitly by setting the power/persist device attribute. The disconnect_all_children() routine in hub.c has been removed and its code placed inline. This is the way it was originally as part of hub_pre_reset(); the revised usage in hub_reset_resume() is sufficiently different that the code can no longer be shared. Likewise, mark_children_for_reset() is now inline as part of hub_reset_resume(). The end result looks much cleaner than before. The sysfs interface is updated to add the new attribute file, and there are corresponding documentation updates.

* USB: add USB-Persist facilityAlan Stern2007-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch (as886) adds the controversial USB-persist facility, allowing USB devices to persist across a power loss during system suspend. The facility is controlled by a new Kconfig option (with appropriate warnings about the potential dangers); when the option is off the behavior will remain the same as it is now. But when the option is on, people will be able to use suspend-to-disk and keep their USB filesystems intact -- something particularly valuable for small machines where the root filesystem is on a USB device!

* usbmon: Extended text APIPete Zaitcev2007-04-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new text API, codenamed '1u', which captures more URB fields than old '1t' interface did.

* USB: add binary API to usbmonPete Zaitcev2007-02-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new, "binary" API in addition to the old, text API usbmon had before. The new API allows for less CPU use, and it allows to capture all data from a packet where old API only captured 32 bytes at most. There are some limitations and conditions to this, e.g. in case someone constructs a URB with 1GB of data, it's not likely to be captured, because even the huge buffers of the new reader are finite. Nonetheless, I expect this new capability to capture all data for all real life scenarios. The downside is, a special user mode application is required where cat(1) worked before. I have sample code at http://people.redhat.com/zaitcev/linux/ and Paolo Abeni is working on patching libpcap. This patch was initially written by Paolo and later I tweaked it, and we had a little back-and-forth. So this is a jointly authored patch, but I am submitting this I am responsible for the bugs.

* USB: Dealias -110 code (more complete)Pete Zaitcev2006-09-27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The purpose of this patch is to split off the case when a device does not reply on the lower level (which is reported by HC hardware), and a case when the device accepted the request, but does not reply at upper level. This redefinition allows to diagnose issues easier, without asking the user if the -110 happened "immediately". The usbmon splits such cases already thanks to its timestamp, but it's not always available. I adjusted all drivers which I found affected (by searching for "urb"). Out of tree drivers may suffer a little bit, but I do not expect much breakage. At worst they may print a few messages.
